sign of old age??

[charlene]

well the last few times we've had tina out throwing the ball for her, she has been really stiff later on that night and even the next day, she is only 6 but have been noticing some slight changes.......the thing is when shes out with her ball she never stops (as some of u may no what tina is like with her ball) so i just keep throwing it for her lol

should i be starting to cut back on her ball throwing if she getting like this or giving her any supplements like a joint/mobility thing ??

thanks charlene x

My Mum gives her dog one tablet of Glucosamine daily for his joints...she feels it really helps with his stiffness, I havent ever had to with my dogs but I do give Hektor Cod liver oil now and again.

Maybe worth a try?

Our daughter's GSD gets glugosamine for her joints. She is doing really well on it.

Perhaps you could TRY cutting back on the ball a bit but she'd probably drive you demented

I'd recommend exactly the same thing for Tina that I just have to Shirley for Pixel. I swear by it. Mine will be started on it in the next 12 months or so. It's called Vitapet and is available both online and at pet stores - it has worked for everyone I have recommended it to - some with very marked results - here's some info:

I still swear by cod liver oil, tho not used it in a bit, but Moya and Scooby are 14 and 13 and not too stiff for their ages, tho Scoobys back end is going its more muscle weakness due to his muscle wastage
